HOW TO HELP RIGHT NOW:

Santa Rosa has asked anyone who is safe to consider volunteering. They need help checking in evacuees and distributing supplies at both Elsie Allen High School and Cook Middle School. The Red Cross has a sign-in sheet here.

Do not call emergency services unless you see active, unattended flames or a life-threatening situation. Emergency services around the Bay Area are overwhelmed right now, and do not need more calls unless you have an immediate emergency.

Stay off the roads, if possible. You are hindering emergency vehicles and urgent evacuees from getting through.
